Chasing Butterflies

I swallow the hurt as I pull on the shirt
You wore as the water we'd pour
As we laughed through the door
With thousands of smiles
Made me chuckle all the while
But time is too big for two
So what can you do?

My ribs feel like dirt
I don't mean to be curt, but
Whenever I fall again
I end up at the end

Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again

I'm stuck in your loop
But I'll never make your hoop
Don't know why I try
No, I don't know why
I hold on to wild butterflies
I'm stuck in your loop
But I'll never make the hoop
Don't know why I try
No, I don't know why
I hold on to wild butterflies

'Cause I can't fly with you
No matter how much I want to
No, I can't fly with you
No matter how much I want to

It's 11:52, I've got 101 things to do
I don't have time to mourn
The black and the blue
A kaleidoscope of eyes
I can't realize the lies when
My roots can't leave the ground
So what have I found?
I'm counting down the days
Try and catch me in my fallen rays
But I'm stuck in our honey days
Watching us fade

Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again
Again and again and again

I'm stuck in your loop
But I'll never make the hoop
Don't know why I try
No, I don't know why
I hold on to wild butterflies
I'm stuck in your loop
But I'll never make the hoop
Don't know why I try
No, I don't know why
I hold on to wild butterflies

No, I can't fly with you
No matter how much I want to
No, I can't fly with you
No matter how much I want to

My lips feel like dirt
I don't mean to be curt but
Whenever I fall again
I end up at the end
